Hi
I need to get 20- odd plastic light-boxes manufactured, here in SA;
...they fit atop the Gilbarco T1 petrol pump - a petrol pump made globally SOLELY for Mobil....
they were / are quite iconic, having been designed by a famous architect - back in the day - to DIFFERENTIATE Mobil petrol stations from all other petrol stations;
...in addition, the architect designed the ROOF over each pump to continue the circular theme, even the OIL merchandising cabinets followed the iconic pump's lines...!
QUESTION: I know a bit about METAL fabrication methods since that is 'our game', but have less experience knowing WHO to approach, and more-importantly, which METHOD of molding I should seek? Extrusion, Blow-, Vacuum, etc etc.
I cannot use fiberglass, so that is off the table completely, Likely Acrylic/Lexan/Perspex, etc.
Any and all help appreciated!
Chris
